With an 11th No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, Eminem ties Bruce Springsteen, Barbra Streisand and Ye (formerly Kanye West) for the fifth-most No. 1s on the Billboard 200. Ahead of them are The Beatles (a record 19 No. 1s), Jay-Z and Taylor Swift (each with 14) and Drake (13).
Also in the top 10 of the new Billboard 200, three acts all debut with their highest-charting albums ever, as ENHYPEN, Clairo and Megan Moroney’s latest releases enter at Nos. 2, 8 and 9, respectively. Plus, after 12 consecutive weeks at No. 1, Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department spends its first week outside the top slot, falling to No. 4 in its 13th week on the list.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new July 27, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on July 23. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
Of The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)’s 281,000 first-week units, SEA units comprise 164,500 (equaling 220.08 million on-demand official streams of the tracks on the streaming edition of the album; Death also debuts at No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 114,000 (all from digital downloads; it wasn’t available as a physical album) and TEA units comprise 2,500.
Death’s first-week sales mark the biggest sales week in 2024 for a rap album. It also nets the second-largest sales week this year for a digital download album, behind only the debut of Swift’s Poets with 274,000 downloads sold in its opening week.
Death was available to purchase only as a digital download and was issued widely in both clean and explicit editions, in addition to three further variants sold exclusively in Eminem’s official webstore. Of the latter three, two were sold as a pre-order for a limited time before the set’s release, and each came with their own exclusive bonus track — one with “Kyrie & Luka,” featuring 2 Chainz, and one with “Like My Shit,” featuring FIFTEENAFTER. A third webstore variant dropped on Wednesday (July 17), carrying both bonus tracks and an exclusive “Steve Berman” skit. The CD and vinyl editions of The Death of Slim Shady are due for release on Sept. 13 and Oct. 25, respectively.
Eminem’s new album was preceded by two top 40-charting hits on the Billboard Hot 100, “Houdini,” which debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the June 15 chart, and “Tobey,” with Big Sean and BabyTron, which climbed to No. 27 on the July 20 chart.
ENHYPEN captures its highest-charting album ever, and fourth top 10, as Romance: Untold debuts at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with 124,000 equivalent album units earned — the act’s largest week ever by units. Of that sum, album sales comprise 117,000 (the group’s best sales week ever; the set debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 7,000 (equaling 9.53 million on-demand official streams of the album’s tracks) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The album’s sales were bolstered by its availability across 17 different CD variants, all containing collectible paper ephemera like photocards, stickers and a poster, as well as two vinyl editions.
Zach Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene slips 2-3 in its third week on the list (88,000 equivalent album units; down 36%) while Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department falls 1-4 (82,000; down 50%). The latter spent its first 12 weeks on the chart at No. 1.
Morgan Wallen’s chart-topping One Thing at a Time dips 3-5 on the Billboard 200 with 66,000 equivalent album units earned (down 5%), Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft descends 4-6 with 57,000 units (down 2%) and Chappell Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess falls 5-7 with 54,000 units (down less than 1%).
Clairo scores her highest-charting album ever, and first top 10, as Charm enters at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 with 47,000 equivalent album units earned — her best week ever by units. Of that sum, album sales comprise 32,000 (her best sales week ever), SEA units comprise 15,000 (equaling 19.78 million on-demand streams of the set’s tracks) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The set’s first-week sales was amplified by the album’s availability across eight vinyl variants and four deluxe boxed sets (containing branded merchandise and a CD). Vinyl sales comprise 15,000 of the album’s first week – Clairo’s best week ever on vinyl.
The album was preceded by the single “Sexy to Someone,” which has reached the top 20 of the Adult Alternative Airplay chart, and the top 30 of the Alternative Airplay and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs rankings.
Megan Moroney lands her first top 10-charting set on the Billboard 200 as her second full-length studio album Am I Okay? bows at No. 9 with 43,000 equivalent album units earned — the singer-songwriter’s largest week by units. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 30,000 (equaling 38.05 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks), album sales comprise 13,000 and TEA units comprise less than 500. The album was preceded by a trio of entries on the Hot Country Songs chart: “No Caller ID,” “28th of June” and “Indifferent.” The new album’s success follows Moroney’s chart breakthrough in 2023 with the single “Tennessee Orange,” from her debut full-length, Lucky (peaking at No. 38 on the Billboard 200 in 2023). “Tennessee” climbed to No. 10 on Hot Country Songs and garnered song of the year nominations at both the Country Music Association Awards and the Academy of Country Music Awards.
Closing out the top 10 of the new Billboard 200 is Noah Kahan’s Stick Season, slipping 7-10 with 40,000 equivalent album units earned (though up 4%).
Luminate, the independent data provider to the Billboard charts, completes a thorough review of all data submissions used in compiling the weekly chart rankings. Luminate reviews and authenticates data. In partnership with Billboard, data deemed suspicious or unverifiable is removed, using established criteria, before final chart calculations are made and published.
For the first time in over a year, and only the sixth time in the modern era, half of the top 10 albums on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart (dated July 20) are country albums.
Zach Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene leads the country party at No. 2 on the July 20-dated Billboard 200, followed by Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time (No. 3) and Dangerous: The Double Album (No. 6), Shaboozey’s Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going (No. 8) and Bryan’s self-titled album (No. 10).
Country albums are defined as those that have appeared on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart. The list began in 1964.
In the modern era – since the Billboard 200 chart began using electronically monitored tracking information from Luminate (then-SoundScan) on the May 25, 1991-dated chart – there have been only six instances where at least half of the top 10 were country titles.

Although Ingrid Andress’ rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” on Monday night drew heavy criticism online, the moment fueled the country singer-songwriter to her best streaming day in nearly 20 months as discussion of the performance spiked interest in her wider catalog.
For July 15-16, the day of and day following the performance, Andress’ song catalog registered a total of 1.2 million official on-demand U.S. streams, according to initial data reports submitted to Luminate. The two-day figure marks a 229% surge from her catalog’s 370,000 stream haul on July 13-14, the two days preceding her performance. (“The Star-Spangled Banner” did not contribute to any counts as the song is not available as a recording on streaming services.)
Of those totals, 941,000 streams alone occurred on June 16, the single-best streaming day for Andress’ catalog since it registered 964,000 clicks on Nov. 23, 2022, when she appeared on a pre-Thanksgiving episode of Drinkin’ With on Country Music Television (CMT) and its social channels.

Andress sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Major League Baseball’s Home Run Derby in Arlington, Texas, on Monday night, and her performance immediately went viral across social media. Many users posted clips referenced some of the competing players appearing to hold back laughter as the cameras cut to them, while others debated technical miscues of pitchiness and questionable runs and likened it to Fergie’s poorly received version of the national anthem from the 2018 NBA All-Star Game.
The next day, Andress posted on her X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram accounts that she was “drunk” during the performance and would voluntarily seek treatment. “I’m not gonna bulls–t y’all,” she wrote, “I was drunk last night. I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition.”
A day ahead of the Home Run Derby, Andress announced a new single, “Colorado 9,” would be released on July 24. In her career, Andress has landed four tracks on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, with her highest peak belonging to “More Hearts Than Mine,” which reached No. 5 in 2020.
The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Hypnotize,” the late rapper’s first No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1997, is back atop a Billboard chart, as it reigns atop the Top TV Songs chart, powered by Tunefind (a Songtradr company), for June 2024 after a synch in Amazon Prime Video’s The Boys.

Rankings for the Top TV Songs chart are based on song and show data provided by Tunefind and ranked using a formula blending that data with sales and streaming information tracked by Luminate during the corresponding period of June 2024.
“Hypnotize,” which ruled the Hot 100 for three weeks in May 1997, can be heard in the second episode of The Boys’ fourth season, which premiered alongside the first and third episode of the season on June 13.
Trending on Billboard
The song accumulated 15.1 million official on-demand U.S. streams and sold 2,000 downloads in June 2024, according to Luminate.
In all, The Boys charts three songs on the June 2024 Top TV Songs list. Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up,” like “Hypnotize” a past Hot 100 No. 1 (two weeks in March 1988), appears at No. 4 (5.8 million streams, 2,000 downloads) after being heard in the season premiere, while Talking Heads’ “Burning Down the House” (No. 9 on the Hot 100 in October 1983) ranks at No. 9 (3.1 million streams, 1,000 downloads) after a synch in the second episode.
But despite three appearances on the latest Top TV Songs chart, The Boys doesn’t boast the most entries for June 2024. That distinction goes to FX on Hulu’s The Bear, which lands four. Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage” leads the group at No. 3 via 6.8 million streams and 1,000 downloads following its appearance in the sixth episode of the newly released third season, which premiered all together on June 26. James‘ “Laid,” The Smashing Pumpkins‘ “Disarm” and Kool & the Gang‘s “Get Down On It” follow at Nos. 6-8, respectively.
The top non-The Boys or –The Bear appearance goes to Imagine Dragons‘ “Whatever It Takes,” which ranks at No. 2 via 10 million streams and 1,000 downloads after a synch in the eighth episode of FX’s Welcome to Wrexham’s third season on June 13.

Shady’s back…at No. 1 in Australia.
Eminem is crowned with The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), which debuts at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, published Friday, July 19.
That’s the Rap God’s 11th career leader in Australia, tying him with U2 in fifth place on the list of artists with the most No. 1 LPs. The only acts ahead of him are Madonna (fourth with 12), Taylor Swift (third with 23), the Beatles (second with 14) and Jimmy Barnes, who stands head and shoulders above the rest with 15 solo chart-toppers, and a further five with Cold Chisel.
All told, Em has logged 31 weeks at No. 1, with albums dating back to The Marshall Mathers LP in 2000. His biggest was Recovery, which led the tally for nine weeks in 2010.

Armageddon arrives with 18,000 copies sold in the U.S. in the week ending July 11, according to Luminate. The album was released widely on CD on July 5 after previously being available as a digital download and via streaming services. CD sales power nearly all of the 18,000 sales in the week ending July 11, and the set was issued in eight collectible CD variants, all containing paper merchandise.
Meanwhile, Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department holds at No. 1 on Top Album Sales with 90,000 copies sold – up 154% for the week. CD sales comprise 67,000 (up 127%), digital album download sales comprise 19,000 (up 1,266%) and vinyl sales comprise 4,000 (down 10%).
The Tortured Poets Department’s overall weekly increase was bolstered in part by sales generated from Swift’s official webstore, which restocked seven earlier-released CD variants of the album (including a signed edition). The restocked items were available to purchase for a few hours on Sunday, June 7 and shipped shortly afterwards. In addition, Swift released three new digital album download variants of the album on Thursday, July 11, sold exclusively in her webstore for $4.99 each, and were only available to purchase that day. Each contained the original standard 16-song album tracklist, along with one bonus live acoustic track, recorded during her The Eras Tour stop in Stockholm (“Guilty as Sin?,” “How Did It End?” or “Peter”).
ATEEZ’s former No. 1 Golden Hour: Part.1 rises 7-3 with nearly 13,000 copies sold (up 3%).
Following its 30th anniversary reissue, Selena’s Amor Prohibido re-enters Top Album Sales at No. 4 with 11,000 sold – its best sales week since 1995. The set, which was initially released in 1994 and spent 20 weeks at No. 1 on Top Latin Albums in 1994-95, was reissued on July 4 across digital and physical configurations, including its first pressing on vinyl.
Amor debuts at No. 1 on the Vinyl Albums chart with 10,000 sold on wax – Selena’s best sales week ever on vinyl. It’s her second leader on the 13-year-old Vinyl Albums ranking. The album was available in four vinyl variants – a standard clear color edition, a Target-exclusive pink color (containing a poster), a Spotify-exclusive coke bottle clear edition and a picture-disc variant sold via Selena’s webstore.
Amor was also reissued on CD and as a cassette tape, with the latter exclusively sold in Selena’s webstore.
Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft rises 9-5 on Top Album Sales with 10,000 (down 12%), Chappell Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess steps 8-6 with 9,000 (down 26%) and Zach Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene shoots 21-7 after its first full tracking week, with 8,500 sold (up 66%). The set was released on July 4, the final day of the tracking week for the July 13-dated chart, and sold 5,000 copies that day (enabling it debut at No. 21).

Chappell Roan is riding a wave of success powered by her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, her first top 10 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200, and standalone single “Good Luck Babe!,” her first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. The Willard, Mo. native is receiving 32 times as many weekly U.S. official on-demand streams as she was at the start of the year – jumping from 2.5 million (in the week ending Jan. 4) to 80.3 million (July 11), according to Luminate.
Now, international audiences are catching up.
Trending on Billboard
Five weeks after debuting on the Hot 100, and three frames after starting on the Billboard Global 200, Chappell Roan’s “Hot To Go!” enters the July 20-dated Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart at No. 200, marking the first entry on the chart from the LP. In the week ending July 11, the song’s non-U.S. streams climbed by 3% to 8.4 million, another in a string of more than 20 consecutive weeks of increases.
The song’s bow builds upon the singer-songwriter’s domestic surge with multiple tracks. Here, “Good Luck, Babe!” has risen to No. 10 on the Hot 100, making cross-metric inroads on streaming, radio and sales. Album cuts “Hot To Go!,” “Red Wine Supernova,” and “Pink Pony Club” have followed on the Hot 100, and due to the U.S.’s dominant impact on the world music economy, on the Global 200.
On Global Excl. U.S., which removes domestic consumption from its methodology (the Global 200 reflects data in more than 200 territories, including the U.S.), “Good Luck, Babe!” has grown its share of non-U.S. global streams from 31% to 57% in the current tracking week. (The week’s average among all songs that are on both the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. is 75% outside the U.S., reflecting a mix of big U.S. hits and those that have not made notable impacts on U.S. shores).
Over the course of the last seven weeks, “Hot To Go!” has expanded its international reach from 35% of its overall streams, to 44%. Roan’s 10 most-streamed songs average 41%, up from 35% just three weeks ago.
While these figures show that international audiences are helping spark Chappell Roan’s rising profile, her non-U.S. percentages are more in line with country and hip-hop artists than pop singer-songwriters. At 56%, “Hot To Go!” has the second-highest U.S. share among all songs on both of this week’s global charts. It’s sandwiched between two country tracks – Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen, and Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” – at 59% and 56%, respectively. Next is Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That” (56%) and Lamar’s “Not Like Us” (50%). Then, it’s tracks by R&B/Hip-Hop focused acts Megan Thee Stallion, Tommy Richman and The Kid LAROI.
“Hot To Go!” continues its ascent in the U.S., having entered the Hot 100’s top 40 two weeks earlier despite not being promoted as a proper radio single, as “Good Luck, Babe!” is. And as introductions to international markets, these hits could be setting Chappell Roan up for a more balanced global spread on future releases. Fellow pop breakthrough Sabrina Carpenter (also on Island Records) made similarly steady showings with 2021’s “Skin,” 2022’s “Nonsense” and 2023’s “Feather,” each peaking much higher on the Global 200 than Global Excl. U.S. Then, this year’s “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” matched No. 1 peaks on both charts, with the former continuing its seven-week-and-counting reign on Global Excl. U.S.
Chappell Roan’s international crossover is becoming clearer each week, as “Good Luck, Babe!” additionally continues to impact Billboard’s Hits of the World charts. It debuted on the May 11-dated Ireland Songs survey, followed by chart arrivals in the U.K. two weeks later and New Zealand, Australia and Singapore in consecutive weeks in June. It has now reached the top five in three of those territories.
This week, “Good Luck, Babe!” starts on Portugal Songs, marking its first international chart appearance measuring a territory without English as an official language. Further, “Hot To Go!” made its Hits of the World debut this week, at No. 25 on U.K. Songs.
